My computer that I built randomly restarts during gaming. I can't seem to solve the problem. It recently just restart on me while playing the Sims 2. The screen just went black and the computer just restart as if I had pushed the manual restart button. The specs are:
- AMD Athlon 64 X2 6400+ (3.2 Ghz)
- OCZ Gold OCZ2G8002GK 2 x 1GB DDR2 800
- ASUS 20X DVD+RW
- PC Power & Cooling 750 W Silencer
- GIGABYTE GA-M57SLI-S4 Mobo
- XFX GeForce 8800 GT 512 MB
I recently changed the PSU to the Silencer which made my computer a lot more stable than it was before, but it still restarts randomly. I ran memtest and it detected no errors. The settings for the RAM (as listed on newegg) are 5-5-5-12 @ 2.1 V, however CPU-Z says its running 5-5-5-15 @ 1.8 V. I don't really know anything about the RAM and if this might cause problems. Everything is up to date, unless there are drivers for the PSU that I don't know about.
Does anyone have any other idea of what might possibly cause a problem? Thank you for any help you can give.
